Chapter 230 Brothers go in first
At this time, the two armies of Sui and Zhao, who were still fighting, are now in a stalemate. Basically, if you move, I will move, and if you don’t move, I won’t move.
In addition, Yang Guang used the people who were loyal to the Sui Dynasty in the city to investigate the real situation inside and rescued He Ruobi, Yang Xuangan and other captured generals as much as possible.
But what Yang Guang did not expect was that Yang Xuangan had been lured to surrender, and He Ruobi's heart was also a little shaken. Now the Sui army in the city has been under the control of the Zhaoguo army.
"Yang Guang, are you still thinking about Yang Xuangan? He has surrendered to my country, so you don't have to worry." Seeing that Yang Xuangan could not do anything, Chai Rong simply snatched his cell phone and cut off the Sui Dynasty for him.
When Yang Xuangan suddenly sent this message, Yang Guang was very surprised. After taking a closer look, this should be their plan, hoping that they would think that Yang Xuangan had surrendered.
But Yang Su believed that Chai Rong was full of tricks. If Yang Xuangan really surrendered, then if they attacked the city now, they would face their former comrades in addition to the Zhaoguo army.
"Let's do it, give it a try, send two people to explore the city and see what changes are going on. If there is a Sui army to cooperate with the defense, then it will be concluded that it has surrendered. If not, then they still have a chance." Yang Guang came up with this idea. If they attacked the city, the captured Sui soldiers in the city will have a glimmer of life, because Feng Hao is a talent-loving person. If he kills the captured general, Feng Hao will definitely be furious.
Based on this idea, Yang Su thought it was feasible, so he ordered a team of cavalry to rush over to see if there were any former Sui soldiers on the city.
In Huayang County, Yang Xuangan has now taken over the entire defense of Huayang, and the Zhaoguo army is responsible for assisting them in defending the city.
Because after all, this city is the result of Yang Xuangan's years of operation, and many internal defense measures and some problems are well known to Yang Xuangan and these soldiers, so Chai Rong expressed his trust in them when he was in charge of defense.
"Why……"
"What's wrong, brother?"
"I didn't expect that I was a soldier from the Sui Dynasty in the past, but today I didn't expect to surrender to Zhaoguo."
"Have you ever thought about it?"
"I really haven't thought about this problem. I have an old mother, a wife, children, and young people at home. They...ah."
"Don't worry, brother, this time we attack the Sui Dynasty, we just need to capture one city and one pool..."
The conversation between the soldiers on the city attracted the attention of a group of Sui Dynasty soldiers. I heard that the Zhaoguo Army was determined to work with the Sui Dynasty for two years this time. If the progress in the past two years is rapid, it would be possible to destroy the Sui Dynasty in one fell swoop.
Now they have not brought the artillery battalion. If they have brought the artillery battalion, this war will fight for which side has the largest number of artillery.
"By the way, how many cannons are there in Huayang County?" Chai Rong came to Yang Xuangan and asked.
Yang Xuangan asked the Armory Consultant to ask him to integrate how many artillery doors are left in the city and how many boxes of shells are left.
"Return to the general, there are ten artillery pieces in the armory in the city, and fifty-six boxes of shells."
If this is the case, they can all be put into the battlefield. Now pull the cannon up and give them a shot first and take the initiative.
"Go, pull out the cannons and put them on the city, take out all the shells, and launch a shelling at Yang Guang's troops." Chai Rong said, pointing to the minor official in charge of the armory.
So the man took a large group of Zhaoguo soldiers to the armory to collect artillery and shells. The cannons they brought now were all Ming-made tiger squat cannons. The musket team was still intact, but they did not bring so many bullets and gunpowders.
"Our musket team has 3,000 muskets, and there are less than 10,000 bullets left. On average, only three or four per person. How many bullets and muskets do your armory have?" Li Cunxiao asked about the reserves of muskets again.
Yang Xuangan roughly checked and found that there were more than 30,000 muskets left in the city and more than 3,000 boxes of bullets. Because they had to be always on guard against enemies from both sides, they saved money and bought some more.
Among these more than 3,000 boxes, an average of more than 5,000 yuan per box, and more than 60,000 kilograms of black gunpowder are placed in a ventilated but not dry place. If an explosion occurs, it is estimated that half of the city will be affected.
"Go, take your Sui Dynasty soldiers who are good at muskets to collect muskets. We are about to face a tiger and wolf army. Although Yang Guang is not in governance enough, he has enough military power." Chai Rong pointed at Yang Xuangan and asked him to collect muskets. From now on, the Sui Dynasty army will not only take the initiative to undertake defense, but will also be led by Chai Rong to defeat Yang Guang.
Soon, the Sui cavalry under the city looked at the city, and they were all familiar with people. It seemed that Yang Su was right. Yang Xuangan had surrendered, and the soldiers in the city were willing to defend the city for them.
After returning to the Sui Dynasty camp, these people told Yang Guang and others about the situation in the city. It seemed that Yang Xuangan had really surrendered. Since they surrendered, they didn't need to wait any longer and attacked in full swing.
But Yang Su said that He Ruobi was still inside. If he attacked rashly, would it also affect the captured generals who had not surrendered yet?
"You know that you act alone. As long as one surrenders, everyone will ignore it, including He Ruobi." Yang Guang is very disappointed with Yang Xuangan now. Since they are ruthless, don't blame them for being unrighteous.
Soon, Yang Guang was at the city again, but the situation on the city was completely different. The cannons were in a row on the city, and the musketeers were already waiting for them to arrive.
"ignition!"
There was a spark in the city, and Yang Guang was completely panicked. There were not so many gunpowder weapons distributed in Huayang County at the time, and their intelligence said that the Zhaoguo army only brought tiger squat cannons and a small number of muskets. How could there be so many guns and muskets?
"Crash! Charge!!!" Yang Guang is not thinking about retreating now. As long as he rushes to the bottom of the city, he will enter the blind spot of artillery range.
"put!!!"
With a command, all the gunpowder weapons on the city were poured out in an instant, and the troops in the front that led the attack were bombarded and basically no complete people were left.
"If you leave the city, you must never let them get close to the city." Li Cunxiao led 10,000 infantry out of the city to engage in close combat with the Sui army, and as much as possible, the enemy is within the range of artillery.
Yang Xuangan looked at the situation in front of him blankly, and he could no longer tell who was who.
"If you feel that it is difficult for you to do this task, you can avoid suspicion." Chai Rong came to Yang Xuangan and said.
"No, I was a comrade in the past and was an enemy today. Yang Guang easily believed that I surrendered and came to attack the city. As long as one person surrendered, he could also surrender with others." Yang Xuangan had seen through Yang Guang and had no reason to work hard for him.
